Ven Bhikkhuni Bodhicitta, who is spending the Rains Retreat at Vivekavana Solitude Grove will be giving a talk on the subject of “The Path to Heaven and Beyond” at the Vivekavana Buddhist Society on September 29th in conjunction with International Bhikkhuni Day 2012.

Gotami Vihara has great pleasure in inviting you to celebrate with us the International Bhikkhuni Day. As it falls on September 29 which is Moon Cake Festival, we have decided to hold it on 23 September instead.

Let us honour past and present bhikkhunis who went through great odds and sacrifice for the
right to become one. It is also to recognise the important role and contribution the bhikkhunis
play in preserving and propagating the Dhamma and upholding the Fourfold Assembly.
